Historic North Carolina village under water after devastating damage from Helene

Fast-moving water surged above front-door steps, inundating buildings and small businesses as Asheville appeared nearly flattened by Helene.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. —A historic village in western North Carolina is under water after bearing the brunt of devastating flooding damage from Hurricane Helene.

Tree branches, logs and a dumpster floated across Asheville’s Biltmore Village, renowned for being built and owned by a single individual.

We need to be careful of getting swept up by sensationalism in these reports. No doubt there is are foreign interests seeking to agitate things domestically.
I was going to suggest that the "preferred vendors" angle be examined but AK beat me to it. If proven true it would be to prosecute the bolshenists.
53   AmericanKulak   2024 Oct 3, 9:15pm  

We can also consider the "Spent the FEMA money on Fakefugees" angle. I imagine the Biden regime does not want to ask Congress for money and FEMA couldn't get through a hurricane season because they spent it all on Illega;s

Just wait until they claim there is a 3 billion dollar relief and restoration fund for optics and you don't see any of that, either.

55   Ceffer   2024 Oct 3, 10:48pm  

What about hostile occupation for eminent domain don't they understand? I wonder when the NATO policing troops and enforcers are going to show up. They've just been Gaza'd and Lahaina'd (and Santa Rosa'd, Paradise'd etc. etc.).



56   Ceffer   2024 Oct 3, 11:03pm  

Why go to all that trouble and expense of condemnation and eminent domain litigations when mercenary availability of technology weapons can do it for you very quickly, and then persecute the survivors until they get the message and leave, maybe with some pittance? Power to the psychopaths.

Apparently, FEMA is denying $750 in emergency money to anybody with homeowner's insurance, while insisting the $750 is to cover immediate needs on their "Rumor busting" subsection of their website.

Why would the Jesuits do something stupid like that?

59   Ceffer   2024 Oct 4, 2:13am  

Is there an ulterior motive to start civil war by igniting a shooting war between FEMA/DHS and the residents of the affected area? The government entities are bent on preventing aid from reaching the area. The logical conclusion is to start shooting the government entities. It would be constitutional to do so.
If the Globalistas can't get their corridor, then they get civil war. Another win/win for the Globalists?

Remember how they purposely funneled drivers in Lahaina at the water front into a dead end to trap them in the fires?









60   Ceffer   2024 Oct 4, 2:22am  

The difference between this the previous imposed atrocities like Lahaina is that so many know what this is out of the chute (weather weapons, land grab), no delayed discovery phase, it is called right away. The grace period for the demonic forces is gone. It means that at least some of the afflicted have a fighting chance by recognizing that the enemy is FEMA/DHS and whatever misbegotten plague of demons they bring with them.

The first thing about being attacked is you have to know you are being attacked and by whom.





62   Ceffer   2024 Oct 4, 2:33am  

It's another mass sacrifice massacre to Satan. The more death and suffering, the better.

Buttegg: Stop using drones, because... uh... safety for the near total lack of airborne relief efforts we're not doing.

Having my FAA drone license, Butthole is completely wrong. It's almost an impossibility that a drone would collide with aircraft which most certainly is going to be helicopters. The airflow from the chopper for lift would blow away a drone. If hit from the bottom that a huge nothing burger.

They don't want people seeing the damage and what they aren't doing as you mention. No drones means no accountability. I'm just calling out the nativity of our supposed transportation fag. He also doesn't understand, it seems, that most consumer and prosumer drones can be bricked in a no fly zone via software. The FAA can just put out a notice and the companies send out the update.

I know better, but live near an airport. Was flying in a forest preserve (against the rules for the FP) and was flying below 400'. Then I fucking saw a plane on approach. Was far enough away and the plane was probably at 1k' altitude, but I started taking it more seriously after that.

The problem with most drone people is they're buried in the screen trying to get cool shots. You HAVE to keep sight of the drone and always be aware of anything else in the air. Video footage is the toughest for this but doable. You can drop 400' in 20 seconds, so you can get out of the way. The highest I ever went was 1,900' out in MT. I was still below 400' AGL which is the law.

Sorry to derail for a second there. Pretty much everyone where the flood happened is fucked as others have said and I think I did too already. No flood insurance. You either have the cash or don't. With the Hawaii thing most homes with a loan have insurance that cover fire. These people cannot rebuild their houses in most cases. Most of the areas are generally pricey. Building soon (still... FML) and it's not cheap. Even if you build cheap and GC on your own, you're looking at $300k for a 3/2.

My grading on my lot says I shouldn't flood, but I might get the insurance after this. Since it's not in a flood plain it should be cheap. None of these people thought they'd see floods like this.
67   Tenpoundbass   2024 Oct 4, 6:53am  

What if FEMA still has cash on hand, but they need to reserve it, so they will have the cash on hand to pay out the ballot mules and head busters, keeping poll watchers away from the ballot tallying?
72   WookieMan   2024 Oct 4, 10:44am  

While I feel bad, I really don't. You know where you live. Hurricanes do hit that area. Flooding does happen. There was a week of notice on the path. All you had to do was go East 200 miles and chill for a bit.

Your employer wouldn't be open. Get away from the area. I see the radar in my area and I take the kids to the basement and watch a movie if a tornado is possible. Adults need to adult. They didn't. Now the other adults (government) are not reacting. That's why you have to adult out of the gate.

So many failures on this one. Everyone has a thumb, including government. Stop pointing the finger and own up for it. I'm on weather pages, this wasn't some unknown. FL handles this shit in stride. Yes there's damage, but death is rare in the last decade or two and they take the brunt of it. Wind and water. This was a rain storm. Not even wind.

Alexa Calmly Tells Stunned Americans Hurricane Helene Was Artificially Created, By Cloud Seeding
"It Was Also The First Manmade Hurricane In History." —ALEXA





Could just be an AI glitch, or AI getting too close to the truth. Hard to tell.
74   RayAmerica   2024 Oct 4, 11:06am  

Don't believe all of this negative hype that this storm is a big deal. Our President (Joe Biden, not Dr. Jill or Kamala) has stated that the 'storm victims' (which storm?) are all 'getting everything that they need' and 'everyone is very happy.' So there.

https://rumble.com/v5hdp19-dementia-joe-wasnt-sure-which-storm-he-was-being-asked-about-then-said-they.html

And yes, Madame Vice President has visited the effected area and she also recently visited the Southern Border. She cares. She really, really cares.
75   DhammaStep   2024 Oct 4, 11:35am  

I hate to sound callous but you shouldn't expect the government to save you or even help you. We know that as a matter of fact from recent history. The government exists to keep you in line until they're ready to harvest whatever resources they desire. Nothing more, nothing less.
77   AmericanKulak   2024 Oct 4, 12:50pm  

We're probably not going to be able to vote our way out of this.

The government is actively preventing volunteers and donations, however. FEMA and Butt eggegg seem more concerned with stopping donations and volunteers than getting the job done.

Gotta agree with this. I don't care if it was a 1,000 year rain or whatever it was. Places that flood are obvious. Get out or move. And yes, every location "could" flood but there's ways to mitigate it. If you're going to stay, have plans. The forecast was spot on.

My neighbors in the other part of town will hate me, but I give no shits. 20" rainfall I could easily pump out in the new house. 3 sump pumps and nat gas generator. I'll never be without electric. Friends with the neighbors and will illegally trench to the storm sewer and get any water out. Higher ground. Our 2' below top soil ground water will be 4-6'. I'll have a pool that can eat up some of that water. 2-3 2k gallon water tanks buried collecting run off from the roof. Use it to water the garden.

Cheap, no. I don't fuck around though. My basement will have $60-80k in just equipment. Not talking structure. Going balls out on the theater. 13.2 atmos. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_033X8500HA/Denon-AVR-X8500HA.html?tp=179 220" screen. Haven't picked speakers or projector yet.

Then have my drum room. That's another $10k excluding what I already own.

The place isn't fucking flooding is my point. I'll take water and push it away. I've got the topography and know what I need to do. It would take something 10x's bigger than the flooding after Helen. Dealt with 20" around '94. We got flooded, but was preventable. My dad was gambling.... like at a casino. Lived it. You have to be prepared. He wasn't. You learn from your father's flaws.

Meanwhile, after making his great tour of the storm zones yesterday, the hamster in Joe Biden’s brain fell off it’s tiny wheel and the Former Vice President forgot what storm he was talking about:

https://x.com/RNCResearch/status/1842018660191195305

Here’s the actual conversation:

REPORTER: “What do the states in the storm zone need — after what you saw today?”

BIDEN: “Oh, in the storm zone? I didn’t know which storm you’re talking about. They uh, they’re getting everything they need. They are happy, across the board.”

Happy? Across the board? Really? Who is he talking about? Is something happening in space? Headline from NBC, this morning:

Hurricane Helene live updates: At least 215 dead as
some communities struggle to get basic supplies
People are still searching for loved ones, and many
residents remain isolated because of widespread damage.

Honestly, I don’t think Biden has any clue what’s going on. He just says stuff now. He has a running list of stock vague answers, meaningless throwaways, which are the intellectually caloric equivalent of a gas-station donut.

He shouldn't be POTUS. The alternative is worse though. VOTE. I want him to stay in office until January. First time I'm rooting for Joe, not joking. I don't want the first woman to be a dumb ass fake nigger. I get leniency on that word #blackinthehouse. What I said is true though.

Don't promote the 25th anywhere. Let Joe ride to pasture. Only 30-40 days (not tracking). Shit will burn November to January, will be one hell of a holiday season. I like being wrong on this stuff. Joe needs to stick around and kick Kamala while she's down. He doesn't like her. And you know Kamala has peeps she wants to pardon. Joe is the old man that will tell her to fuck off. I kind of like Joe now that the filters are off.
83   AmericanKulak   2024 Oct 4, 1:26pm  

Under Administrator Deanne Criswell, FEMA has realigned its focus towards Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), influenced by President Biden's Executive Order 13985. The agency's strategic plan now emphasizes "equity of outcome" in hiring and disaster aid.

Additionally, FEMA has increased its support for NGOs with substantial grants for migrant aid, encompassing both legal and illegal entries.

This DEI emphasis, along with a push for climate change initiatives, has led to a severe deterioration of the agency’s ability to manage disasters—as evidenced by its string of errors in handling Hurricane Helene. The agency has gone so far as to impede rescue and support efforts by local volunteers and private groups while sitting on its hands.


Remember Deanna?


86   GNL   2024 Oct 4, 2:00pm  

Pretty difficult to know what the truth is of anything in this country. If anyone believes the media, you in deep shit.

Does anyone know someone in the area that can give a first hand account?
